1955 Map of Circle A-2

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

East Fork Chena River and the Salcha River drainage systems define the high-elevation interior landscape shown in this mid-1950s survey. The map reveals a roadless wilderness dominated by complex ridgelines and branching creek networks, including Big Windy Creek and Little Windy Creek. A geodetic marker at VABM 4476 Tip provides a specific reference point for surveyors and navigators in a region otherwise characterized by its natural watercourses. The lack of established roads or trails during this period reflects the isolation of the Yukon-Koyukuk region before more modern infrastructure reached these upland basins. Tributaries such as Grizzly Creek, Wolf Creek, and Sheep Creek are clearly delineated, tracing the natural flow of the interior's watershed.
